Hello all! I've enjoyed my time lurking here and thought it right to join.
I'm considering building a pair of the 7Pi corner horns and had a few questions before I get started.
first off, the room that they will be in is 12' wide with a sliding glass door in between the corners that the speakers will be in. will this cause a problem with the speakers needing an uninterrupted wall? is this room too small? the other walls are just long drywall. I will be seated about 9-10' away from the speakers just outside of where they cross (I've read that it's important to be just outside where they cross).
my second question is how will the height of the mid range and the compression driver affect the sound at the listening position? my ears reach 38" high when seated in my chair. Will this affect the imaging or the high frequencies due to the drivers being so high?
I've always wanted a big horn speaker and these look like they will fit the bill as I have perfect corners for them. I'm just worried that the room is too small and the mid range and the compression driver will be too high and cause poor imaging (which I really enjoy)
My main goal is imaging and soundstage followed closely by dynamics.
Thanks everyone, I look forward to hanging out here.
